King Engine Bearings CR8038XPC.026 Performance Rod Bearing Set with pMaxKote Coating

The King Engine Bearings CR8038XPC.026 is a premium performance connecting rod bearing set designed for Ford and International Power Stroke diesel engines. This set includes 8 pairs of bearings sized at 0.026mm oversize, making them ideal for engine rebuilds requiring slightly larger bearing dimensions.

These XPC-series bearings feature King's advanced pMaxKote polymer coating—a nano-composite fourth layer applied over a tri-metal base structure. This proprietary coating contains ceramic nano-composite particles and solid lubricants that significantly improve wear resistance and provide critical protection during periods of marginal lubrication, such as cold starts or high-performance operation.

Key Features:

• Tri-metal construction with pMaxKote polymer coating for enhanced durability
• 17% greater fatigue resistance compared to standard bearings
• Nano-composite coating improves wear characteristics and protects during marginal lubrication
• 0.026mm oversize for precision fitment in machined or worn crankshafts
• All coating and manufacturing processes completed in-house at King for consistent quality
• Designed specifically for Ford/International Power Stroke diesel engines

King Engine Bearings has specialized in engine bearings since 1960, utilizing the highest quality materials and advanced designs to ensure complete customer satisfaction across automotive, heavy-duty truck, marine, and industrial applications.
